K100 All Seasons Indoor Composter Kit, Tan Bucket with Bokashi, Garden, Lawn, Maintenance

Pour la planète

I love this composter. It is large enough for plenty of kitchen waste, and when closed, there is no odor. I have two of them - when one is full, I let the waste "cook" while I fill the other one. I had one outside and a racoon tried to get into it, but was unable to open the lid. I have never had a problem with fruit flies or other pests. When my other ones burned up in a fire, I bought new ones. They are very sturdy and as I say. the lid fits so tightly that there is no odor, nor any pests.

They said it does'nt smeel while you compost your waste and it's right But when you empty that thing... you'll probably got sick of the stench. Really !! I build my compost bin outside and use this contener as a garbage bin sheshhh...

Works well.

I've had my composter for about 2 months now, so I feel pretty confident in giving a review. Here are my thoughts on it: - First off it's not really an indoor only composter. It's more of a holding/fermenting vessel. You still need space outside to deal with the final breakdown of the compost. What I do with great success is when I'm ready to empty the container I have a large pot that I fill 1/3 with potting soil, then the compost, then cover with soil. You have to then let this sit outside for another 2 weeks-month before you have soil you can actually use for your plants. Make sure to keep it somewhere where the varmints can't get in and dig through it. I still will find eggshells and onion skins after that time period, but that's it. I use that directly with my plants and they seem pretty content. - For one person it's a good size, but I could see if you had a family you'd be filling it up very quickly. I live alone and eat a lot of vegetables and fill it up every 2-3 weeks. - As other reviews have mentioned you go though a TON of the bran mix. I go through a bag of that in about a month. So expect ongoing expenses with it. I did a breakdown on expenses and it's still cheaper than buying organic potting soil. I have almost no garbage waste anymore which was more of my goal with it. - The instructions recommend pushing a trash bag down on top of the compost to keep it air tight. I've had some issues with mold due to it not being airtight with just the bag. What I ended up doing was cutting out a piece of plywood and wrapping that in plastic to use as an internal airtight lid. Since doing that I've had much better results. This is the only reason I've given it 4 stars rather than 5. - I haven't gotten any tea out of it, but I think that is more to do with the composition of my trash than anything else. - I haven't noticed any foul odors or flies. That's it! After making the one modification of building an internal seal I'm completely happy with it!
